Collapse 3: The girl who chased the fire moth

Melutina pouted,

"A gentle person should be treated gently."

……

A gentle person should be treated with kindness.

Until now, Melutina also thinks so, so she takes special care of Joyce, but she understands...

It is because gentle people are not returned with the same kindness that people grow up.

"Will he die?"

Melutina had this premonition, she was already familiar with this feeling, so familiar that it was disgusting.

It is really unlucky to recall such a thing at this time.

Because everyone in this memory failed to usher in a good death.

"Pfft...cough cough cough."

Leanna couldn't hold back and sprayed out the water,

"What unlucky things are you talking about..."

"Ah, sorry, talking to myself. By the way, Rhianna, I heard that Dr. Schrödinger attacked Joyce and the others?"

Melutina came back to her senses and asked.

"Well, she also did it out of good intentions, although the way she did it is not acceptable. Now he can control the Star of Eden very well, but Dr. Edison she..."

Rhianna hesitated to speak.

"I heard that Frederica ran away and cried secretly... That's why I can't like Otto."

Melutina sighed,

"Good and evil cannot cancel each other out. Evil deeds are evil deeds. I cannot forgive his actions."

"..."

Rhianna clenched her cup tightly and said nothing.

"When are they coming to meet?"

Melutina asked.

"It's almost there."

Leanna said that she arrived here first, and just as she was speaking, Joyce and the others appeared at this station.

"Hey, Joyce, that looks fine..."

"……Eh?"

Melutina's words were stuck, she lowered her head, a black spike protruded from her chest.

Melutina felt her vision go black, she fell to the ground, blood scattered.

"Meddy!"

"Dr. Linnaeus!"

"Melutina!"

Einstein, Joyce, and Schrödinger all happened to see this scene, and all three screamed.

"My old friend Melutina..."

Originally, the existence of Leanna should have disappeared, and Otto Apocalypse stood there, holding the black abyss in his hand, with false compassion,

"I'm sorry... Although I can't get the key in your hand, at least I can save one variable."

"O...to..."

Melutina's eyes slowly turned into vertical pupils, but Otto didn't see it.

"My old friend...you are really smart, and this trick can only be used once. Forgive me for taking advantage of your kindness."

Otto suppressed his smile, with a rare gloomy expression on his face,

"You are one of the people I respect the most, but for my purpose, I can sacrifice anyone, even... you are the same."

"That's not what was said...you didn't tell me it would be..."

Another who appeared here, said the Finn tremblingly,

"You just said that you don't want Dr. Edison to take the inter-age research for himself...you didn't say she would die, you...you didn't say that Dr. Linnaeus would die..."

"You did it?!"

Tesla, who rushed back after hearing the movement, stared at the man with red circles.

"I...I'm not...I don't want...but he, but he threatened me with my child...I can't help it, I don't know I will..."

"You talk too much."

Impatiently, Otto swung the black abyss again, piercing the Finn's body.

"Sorry……"

The Finn's eyes lost their luster in an instant, and he fell to the ground.

"O-to-"

Schrödinger, who has half of the body of Honkai Beast, rushed forward frantically, but...

"It's really a useless struggle. Don't you guys know the power of the black abyss and white flowers? It's just a Herrscher who hasn't mastered the power yet..."

Otto smiled mockingly,

"My old friend has fallen, and you... can't stop me."

.........

"you……?"

Plank looked at the boy on the private plane in surprise. When she arrived at the destination, she found that the boy had followed her in the storage box.

"Joachim, you..."

For a while, Plank didn't know what to say, she didn't want to take this child to meet Melutina and the others at all, but it's not safe anywhere now.

"It's okay, professor, I will definitely not cause you trouble! Because my father was threatened by bad guys...so I must see him!"

"What did you say?!"

.........

"Oh, there are so many traitors... Soul Steel Inhibitor, are you my old friend?"

Although Joyce and the others had fallen to the ground at this moment, Otto couldn't go any further, because the one in front of him...

Hotel proprietress.

"No, I'm Dr. Planck's."

The hotel proprietress shrugged.

"Dr. Schrödinger, is there enough time?"

"Exactly..."

Schrödinger picked up the black abyss and white flowers he had just captured,

"Enough time for me to fight for my life! Heiyuan Baihua, zero rated power, forced to start!"

"Tsk, doing redundant things again..."

Otto was speechless, but was stopped by the hotel proprietress when he wanted to act.

"Hey, tyrant... don't think about the past, if I wasn't worried about Leanna, I would have ruined your body long ago."

"Big talk... And, all rule is tyranny."

Otto snorted coldly,

"I just came today to clear some stumbling blocks."

In just a few seconds, Schrödinger completed her final work, and her figure disappeared.

Instead, Walter Joyce stood in front of Otto Apocalypse.

Chapter 9 The Song of Walter Joyce

I don't want to be a hero.

That's a title that only great people can have, and I'm not.

In the chaos of that time, I recalled the past.

Carl Gustav, although he is not sure whether it can be said to be "the former self", at least it is the most important part of "Walter Joyce".

He is a gentle person.

He saved many people, including Liesel Albert Einstein.

Before dying, he also came to Berlin to save someone.

Although ironically, the cause of this disaster was him.

Waking up from the ruins, forgetting everything.

That was the price, he had accepted too many things, and endured too many people's wishes.

So, should he be a hero?

Yes.

But does he want to be a hero?

No.

.........

"With great power comes great responsibility...Although some people say so, I don't think so."

When discussing this topic with a book friend who often chats in the library, she smiled softly.

It was not pretending to understand, or pretending to be vicissitudes, but a heavy and understanding expression appeared on her face.

"Why can you say that?"

"Because people who think this way mostly go astray in the end. In the end, only those who feel inferior to themselves and think that they don't have such abilities can fulfill their responsibilities tremblingly."

She wags her fingers,

"Hey, why are you so entangled? In fact, sometimes a hero just follows the trend. When you can't retreat, you can become a hero."

"There is no... can I retreat?"

"When you have your back against someone important to you, there is no way you can retreat."

.........

"You are right, Dr. Linnaeus."

Walter Joyce lifted his coat and stretched out his hand. The Star of Eden was already in his hand.

"The time has come, this is the day to devour the tyrant of the sky. Otto Apocalypse, no... Clown Alpha, let's see what the stars look like when they shatter!"

"Varied……"

The crimson light devoured everything, and in the end, even the light disappeared.

Eden Star, zeroth power rating--

Similar to a black hole.

That was the power that once belonged to a certain red-haired herrscher, and it was also the weapon of the singers of that era.

Few people remember them in this era, but in the hands of the same gentle man, it seemed as if they recognized him——

The Ninth God's Key, the Devouring Key responded to him.

"This is impossible!"
